Dr. Mary Ann Markey

Dr. Mary Ann Markey is a Psychologist and Expert in the field of Conflict Analysis and Resolution focusing on the relationships between intrapersonal and interpersonal conflicts which demonstrates the ways in which these domains are inextricably linked. For example, how an inner conflict pertaining to a lack of self-confidence is likely to override a positive mindset, and thereby result in a less than optimal performance outcome. She is also a musician who performs with the Charlotte Chorale and the Florida Philharmonic Chorus, so Dr. Markey is keenly attuned to the importance of assuming a holistic approach when assisting others to maximize the level of their performance while tapping into their individual wellspring of creativity and self-expression.

Dr. Markey is a professor at Ringling College of Art and Design in Sarasota, Florida where she teaches courses in Forensic Psychology and Astrosociology to a highly creative body of students and faculty. She is also the President of the non-profit organization, the Teddy Bear Project which provides comfort and healing to children and their families who have experienced abuse, neglect, abandonment and homelessness. The Teddy Bear Project originated in 2010 in Greenville, North Caroline when Dr. Markey was the Director of the Family Center for the Family Violence Program. She relaunched the Project in July of 2020 when the COVID-19 pandemic escalated the number of cases of intrafamily violence, abuse and homicide. She has been able to witness first hand the ways in which music can improve the quality of life for these children and their families who have often had their voices silenced but have discovered how music allows them to express their emotions when words cannot.
